[QUOTE="99GTvert, post: 13392319, member: 20398"] I pretty much look at the bible (or any other religious book) as a book written to keep people in line. I do still believe there could be a god or higher power that created the universe, but I don't believe it had anything to do with the bible. Even if it was written by God himself, it has been altered by mistranslations, misunderstandings, and kings who picked and chose what they thought should be in it, that it would be unrecognizable. Some of the things that are in there are pretty ridiculous, I would hope that even the religious folk can see that. I grew up catholic, so I have seen both sides. I'm not trying to talk anyone out of something they believe in, religion is not all bad. Some people need the comfort of believing the stories in their book, others use the good lessons to stay out of trouble or turn their lives around. I just have a problem with the extremists, and not just the obvious ones with bombs strapped to them. Some of the ones here in good ole 'Merica can be pretty bad too. [/QUOTE]
